Our mission

Making life easier for people with intimate healthcare needs

Coloplast develops products and services to make life easier for people with deeply personal and private medical conditions. These conditions are often associated with trauma and taboo. The more intimate the condition, the greater the requirement to come closer to customers, understand their world and develop solutions that are sensitive to their special needs. We call this Intimate Healthcare.

Our values

Closeness...to better understandPassion...to make a differenceRespect and responsibility...to guide us

What does this mean for our customers?

Closeness to all customers makes this possible. We listen to better understand needs, and respond by finding new ways to do things better together. We lead the way by bringing the best ideas first and fast to market in the form of medical devices and service solutions.

Deeply private and personal medical conditions are our focus. Our passion to make a real difference to people’s lives is what drives and unites us. Our culture supports high ambitions, and releases the full potential of our own people to achieve them. We welcome the broader responsibility that comes with leadership - a responsibility to the environment, to society, to our shareholders, and to act with integrity in all we do.

Coloplast develops products and services to make life easier for people with deeply personal and private medical conditions.

The more intimate the condition, the closer we work with our customers to find solutions that are sensitive to their needs. Closeness to all customers - end users as well as healthcare professionals - is our goal.

Closeness requires a willingness to listen, an ability to empathize, and a commitment to act on what we learn.

...and for us

Getting closer to our customers and understanding their needs is the guiding principle in everything we do. We all have a responsibility to listen and help respond to the needs of our customers.

But closeness also applies to our relationships with one another. We value open and honest dialogue so we can understand what motivates and drives us - both individually and as a company.

Through closeness, we can create a 'we' culture at Coloplast - where we listen to each other and do what we can to make our working lives easier.

Our vision

Setting the global standard for listening and responding

Listening and responding has always been an integral part of what we do. We have gained a great deal of knowledge through working with the people using our products and healthcare professionals.

We strive to make a difference for people using our products and their families by giving them information about the conditions that affect their lives. For healthcare professionals, we can offer educational material and a variety of other reference sources.

Much of what we know comes from you, and we welcome a dialogue with anyone who shares our interests.
